Timing of primary growth harvest affects the yield and nutritive value of timothy-red clover mixtures	2000	14	.pdf	application/pdf	7743	399	67	Timing of primary growth harvest affects the yield and nutritive value of timothy-red clover mixtures Marketta Rinne Agricultural Research Centre of Finland, Animal Production Research, FIN-31600 Jokioinen, Finland, e-mail: marketta.rinne@mtt.fi Arja Nykänen Agricultural Research Centre of Finland, Resource Management Research, FIN-51900 Juva, Finland, e-mail: arja.nykanen@mtt.fi The effects of partition of growth time between primary growth and regrowth of perennial organically grown mixed (mainly timothy and red clover) leys were studied over two years in Juva, Finland. If the aim of forage production is to produce feed for intensive animal production, primary growths should be harvested early, because the poor qual- ity of primary growth influenced the quality of forage harvested across both growth periods.	cache/afs-5654.pdf	txt/afs-5654.txt
